Details:

Ride down, drive up...Brilliant!

A few fun hours on the downhill course to start the weekend. I'll be bringing the ute for shuttle runs so we can throw on up to seven bikes for the uphill. Probably do a few slower runs to start so we can scope out some of the ugly sections.
I guess we'll see what happens weather wise, I'll probably post something about one hour before the meeting time so check in for the verdict.
This ride won't be suited to novice riders, bigish bikes, big pads and full face helmet are a good idea, big kahoonas may also be usefull. (kidding about the kahoonas). However, there is of course, quality XC trails on offer at the same location if you want to be involved.
I'll be driving a blue tray back rodeo.

see ya there, nate

Locked in, 12:30 start.

Hay Nate
weather could be a factor condition of track could be an issue as there was some vandalism of some of the NS sections last weekend making some jumps a hazard but there is still a lot of B lines to go too. There is also a new track I spoted last week that looks really good .
I will have my 4x4 which can take 4 bikes but the best option is what we did up at Ourimbah last time which is to use one car and swap drivers each run = fast turn around and plenty of runs , thats if you dont mind others driving your ute.
c u @ ox a.m.

overnight like it has been then I think we'll have to shelve it, if it's dry overnight, I'll take a quick look early sat and decide. The outlook is better for sunday, maybe an arvo session? just have to see what we get.
-yes to the shuttle plan dez, we did that at Ourimbah last time, worked out nicley.
